Core Tip	Abdominal pain, diarrhea, rectal bleeding, abdominal distention, ascites, anorexia, fever, lactacidosis, sepsis, and splenomegaly are common features of acute portal vein thrombosis (PVT). Etiological factors in non-cirrhotic PVT patients are prothrombotic states and local factors, although more than one factor is often identified. Our patient, a 63-year-old man, without personal or familial history of venous thromboembolism developed portal and mesenteric vein thrombosis after an acute gastrointestinal infection by Escherichia coli. Clinicians need to be aware of this potential complication in patients with persistent abdominal pain and ascites after abdominal infections.
